[Resolved] Bugs/suggestions for improvement when adding online events

I’m having an event that takes place online. This is what happens when I edit the event:

– I unchecked “Show map”. Now there’s a big grey field. Doesn’t look nice. Would be better to just show nothing.

– It’s impossible to hide the Google Maps link

– I’d like to add a link to the website which is in the case of an online event the venue’s address. Unfortunately, the “website” field seems to have a bug: the link is shown in HTML, but is not clickable.

– a custom field would be great. Something were you can write specific stuff about the venue like: “smokers bar, only adults”, “no registration required”, “use the backdoor” etc.

The issues you are seeing with the Google Map and Link are puzzling- unchecking the box should make those not show. I’m wondering if there’s something interfering there that is making them show. Have you tried deactivating other plugins to look for a conflict, or switching to a default theme like Twenty Twelve?

If you can isolate this as an issue that’s inherent to The Events Calendar, we’d be happy to look into it further. Unfortunately, we can’t help troubleshoot conflicts here on the free forum. If you do find a conflict, you can try getting in touch with the developer of the theme or plugin and see if they can shed some light on the issue.

We just released a hotfix to correct the issue with the venue website field. Please update The Events Calendar to 3.6.1. If your issue persists after you update, please let us know. Thanks for your patience and understanding while we got that fixed!
